When i am using /rest/api/2/project/search to retrieve the list of projects from my Jira site, i am getting empty result even though there are visible projects in site, with basic auth with PAT with a new basic auth setup.
This used to work in past but broken recently. It is working fine with OAuth 3LO setup though.
Is this endpoint now end of life? Are other endpoints for importing issues, sprints and attachments also not going to work now?

Hi @Anupam Pandey 

/rest/api/3/projects still works using a browser, provides the list of projects in the instance

That endpoint will deprecated in the future and https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-projects/#api-rest-api-3-project-search-get should then be used but this is till working.

How are you using this API endpoint?

HI @Anupam Pandey ,

 

This seems like the case. I also notice recently I could not get full list of objects. This impacts when you have large list of issues. You would need to keep pulling the next set by going through iterations in your script until you get to the very end.
